Chapter 674: Chapter 674: Sparring Among Disciples, The Potential Formula Takes Effect
âSister Ning, let me test your prowess.â
Among the third-generation disciples, a woman slowly stepped forward, surrounded by countless blood-colored lotuses spinning around her, emitting an aura that demanded caution.
The womanâs name was âXia Qinglian.â
She came from one of the Eighteen Ancient Clans, the Blood Lotus Sect, and was one of the top powerhouses among the younger generation.
Age, twenty-five.
Cultivation level, first layer of the Spirit Sea Realm.
...
âYou are Xia Qinglian, I know of you,â Ning Xiangxiang said, holding her longsword, her brows knit together, âYou come from the Blood Lotus Sect, with a supreme-grade physique. It is said you were born with the Blood Lotus Body, possessing remarkable strength.â
âYou flatter me, Sister Ning. Iâm not as good as you,â Xia Qinglian said, lips slightly pursed.
âYou are quite modest.â Ning Xiangxiang took a step forward, arriving at the center of the Sect Main Plaza.
Ever since the super-large infusion of the Power of Heaven and Earth, the Sect Main Plaza had become much larger.
The ground bricks, amplified by the Power of Heaven and Earth, had become incredibly durable and resilient, such that not even a full-force attack from someone in the Spirit Sea Realm could break them.
This place was indeed an upper-rank arena.
âEveryone, since this is a sparring match, letâs just tap to the limit; letâs not ruin our harmony. Both parties shall fight for three hundred rounds. Regardless of whether a victor can be determined or not, once the rounds are up, we cease immediately,â Xu Dalei said, stepping forward and speaking aloud.
âI agree with Brother Xuâs suggestion,â Han Yonghui stated.
As a leading figure among the third-generation disciples, his words carried weight and were immediately echoed by all the third-generation disciples.
âVery well.â
âThen letâs compete for three hundred rounds.â
Ning Xiangxiang and Xia Qinglian nodded in agreement.
The two moved to the middle of the Sect Main Plaza, standing ten meters apart.
âYouâre not using a spiritual artifact?â Ning Xiangxiang asked.
âThese are my spiritual artifacts,â Xia Qinglian stated, gesturing to the numerous blood-colored lotuses spinning around her.
âThen make your move!â Ning Xiangxiang commanded, fingers formed into a sword and her body shielded by a sword barrier.
As a second-generation senior sister, she embodied the spirit of courteousness.
âThen, I wonât hold back.â Xia Qinglian waved her hand, and the countless blood-colored lotuses around her bloomed fully, their petals swiftly falling like numerous blood-colored blade shadows slicing towards Ning Xiangxiang.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Ning Xiangxiangâs shield was violently impacted, quickly becoming riddled with cracks and looking like it would shatter at any moment.
âMan-Sword Unity!â
Seeking to avoid the onslaught, Ning Xiangxiang raised her longsword high, merging her body into the blade, shattering dozens of the blood-colored petals and breaking through the encirclement.
The longsword changed direction, slashing towards Xia Qinglian.
âWell done!â
Xia Qinglian remained cool and collected.
She formed seals with her hands, and the blood-colored lotuses around her formed into a shield, continuously resisting Ning Xiangxiangâs attacks.
Their speed was tremendous.
In less than half a cup of teaâs time, they had fought for dozens of rounds.
Atop Misty Peak.
Mo Ying stood with her sword in hand.
Around her, stood a dozen or so disciples.
Shi Lei, Li Jiaojiao, Huo Yunjie, Qiao Jiaxi, Long Tianxing⊠All of the first-generation disciples were present.
Even Li Qiankun from the second-generation disciples was there.
âXia Qinglianâs spiritual artifact and my âFalling Blooms in Profusionâ share similar effects, but hers is even more exquisite,â Jia Yulan remarked indifferently.
Having completed so many Disciple Points Ranking tasks and after enjoying tenfold enhancements in places like the Spirit Gathering Tower and the Cultivation Tower, she too had become a Spirit Sea Realm expert.
And not just an ordinary Spirit Sea Realm expert.
Apart from her, the other first-generation disciples were also very strong.
Even Yu Su and Yu Wei, who had previously been the weakest in terms of cultivation level, had now advanced to the Spirit Sea Realm and upheld the honor of the first-generation disciples.
âHowâs your âThe Potential of Roots Manuscriptâ coming along?â At this moment, Ji Ziling asked curiously.
âSecond Layer Mastery.â
âWhat a coincidence, same here,â she replied.
One by one, the first-generation disciples spoke.
âHa ha, then youâre slower than me,â Ji Ziling boasted with her hands on her hips, âMy âThe Potential of Roots Manuscriptâ is already at the third layer.â
Upon hearing this, everyone looked askance.
âHow is that possible?â Long Tianxing exclaimed in surprise.
Ji Zilingâs lips curled slightly as she explained:
âThatâs because the Sect Leader used me as a test subject again.â
âI brewed the Potential Elixir, and I use it to take a bath every day. I cultivate while bathing and naturally made a breakthrough,â Ye Feng said.
The recipe for the Potential Elixir was a hidden reward Ye Feng obtained after his sect reputation surpassed one million.
As the first user, Ji Ziling had already reached the Perfection of the third layer of the Auxiliary Cultivation MethodâThe Potential of Roots Manuscriptâ with the help of the Potential Elixir.
Her original Supreme Grade physique had already broken through its limits, ascending to the higher Divine Grade.
In Misty Sect, when it comes to cultivation speed, she ranks second and no one dares to claim the first.
âJunior Sister Ziling, do you have any extra Potential Elixir?â Huo Yunjie, Shi Lei, Li Jiaojiao, and other disciples with less talent showed interest and asked.
âOf course!â
Ye Fengâs voice slowly drifted over.
âPaying respects to the Sect Leader!â The First Generation Disciples present immediately turned around to greet Ye Feng with a bow.
âThe Potential Formula was also recently developed and, coupled with the Auxiliary Cultivation MethodâThe Potential of Roots Manuscriptâ, it has a great chance of enhancing oneâs physique by one to two grades,â Ye Feng explained.
Ye Feng looked towards Ji Ziling, âYou were originally of the Supreme Grade, and now you have advanced to Divine Grade. How do you feel?â
Ji Zilingâs physique had been enhanced just today.
It was at the moment she reached Perfection in the third layer of âThe Potential of Roots Manuscriptâ that her entire body shone with light, actively devouring natureâs spiritual energy, and her cultivation level automatically ascended by a minor realm.
If it werenât for Ye Feng concealing the secret, this event would have caused a sensation.
Every individual with a Divine Grade physique naturally exudes an aura. If not concealed, it could easily attract unwanted attention.
âI feel that my cultivation speed has increased several times,â said Ji Ziling, looking at her own hands. âBesides that, I feel that my aura has changed from before⊠If I were to describe it in one word, it would be ânoblerâ by a great extent.â
âNot bad,â Ye Feng nodded in approval.
A Divine Grade physique naturally carries a ânobleâ quality.
If not for Ye Feng concealing the secret, Ji Ziling would have made quite the regal impression standing there with her long, thick purple hair reaching the ground, commanding respect and admiration.
âNow, I have brewed a large amount of Potential Elixir for all of you to use,â announced the Sect Leader.
With a casual wave of his hand, Ye Feng produced several jade vials, one for each person. Each contained hundreds of pounds of Potential Elixir, enough to last for a long time.
âWe thank the Sect Leader for his generous gift!â
The disciples expressed their gratitude in unison.
On the Sect Main Plaza.
Clang!
Ning Xiangxiang and Xia Qinglian fought for three hundred rounds, neither able to gain the upper hand, resulting in a draw.
âAs expected of a Second-generation senior sister, impressive!â Xia Qinglian stepped down from the arena, voluntarily admitting defeat.
âYour strength is no less than mine. Why admit defeat?â Ning Xiangxiang did not show any pleasure.
She had practiced many auxiliary techniques, but now, she could only manage a draw against a Third Generation Disciple, feeling considerable pressure.
And this would turn into motivation for further cultivation.
âSeems like we need to implement a Disciple Strength Ranking within the sect. System, can you make it happen?â Ye Feng mused to himself, looking down at the Sect Main Plaza.
System: ââŠâ
It felt that Ye Feng was troubling it.
âNever mind, youâre unreliable. I, the Sect Leader, will personally draft this ranking list!â Ye Feng silently decided.
To encourage disciples to challenge one another and improve together, Ye Feng resolved to create a Disciple Strength Ranking immediately.
This ranking wouldnât be based on sparring among the disciples but would rely on the powerful deduction capabilities of the Heart of Wisdom, using detailed information of each disciple available on the system panel.
High in the sky.
Ye Fengâs hands formed seals.
Numerous names flickered before him, eventually coalescing into an ethereal ranking list.
Before long, Ye Feng produced a Refining Furnace.
After infusing it with a large amount of precious materials, the furnace began to refine.
Meanwhile, on the Sect Main Plaza.
Wielding a longsword, Han Yonghui stepped forward, his eyes blazing as he looked at Xu Dalei, a senior among the Second-generation Disciples.
âBrother Xu, Iâve heard youâre the strongest of the Second-generation Disciples, and also the eldest among the Second-generation. May I have the honor of learning from you?â he asked.
âSaying Iâm the strongest among the Second-generation Disciples is overestimating me. Junior Sister Liang Wanfen is the strongest. But, since you wish to challenge me, why not?â Xu Dalei replied, stepping forward without any fear.
However, just at that moment.
A dazzling golden light descended from the sky, illuminating the entire Misty Sect and drawing the attention of everyone present.
âEffective immediately, I hereby announce the Misty Sect Disciple Strength Ranking. This list contains the names of the top one hundred combatants, all of whom are among the strongest disciples in the Misty Sect!â Ye Fengâs authoritative voice boomed throughout the entire sect.
The next moment.
